Red Bull Air Race – the Game
A breath-taking new online game where you need lightning fast reactions to control the sports aircraft you are piloting. Finish the course in the fastest time whilst performing stunts. Brilliant but hard at first, makes exactly the same demands on screen, as the contestants in the real air races have to meet in their cockpits: precision, rapid reaction and absolute perfection in handling their sport aircraft.

Before the championship there are of course practice flights for the online pilots: in a personal training plane. It is slightly slower and a bit lighter than the racing planes – and therefore much easier to manoeuvre.
After a few training flights it should be no problem to change to the “Race Plane” and enter the competition – the fight for the top positions in the rankings of the respective courses can begin.
The precise recreations of the courses at Kemble and Budapest are now online, and the stopwatch on the virtual course at Reno will start ticking soon.
Just as in the real world of aerobatics, first there will be three individual winners in the virtual Red Bull Air Race – one for each of the courses: Kemble/UK, Budapest/HUN und Reno/USA. They will be determined on 20 September – and fly against each other on 21 September in a superfinal for overall victory and the title of the Red Bull Air Race Online Champ. The prize for the best online pilot? A thoroughly unvirtual aerobatic flight.
